Christian Norgaard (DM) - 6.5/10 - Continued at the base of Arteta's midfield ahead of Zubimendi. Offered some protection in defensive transitions but was often bypassed in build-up play as Arsenal went direct in the first-half. Replaced after 67 minutes.

Declan Rice (CM) - 6/10 - Poor by his very high standards today. Playing in a more advanced position than at times last season, he was able to run behind the defence to get on the end of Havertz' flick on in the first half. His delivery from free-kicks was poor as Saka drew foul after foul in the first half. Replaced after 81 minutes.

Martin Odegaard (CM) - 7/10 - Heavily involved in Arsenal's better moments but failed to capitalise on a couple of half-chances. His delivery from free-kicks and corners caused Tottenham problems. The captain played the full 90 minutes.
